As if sensing the return of the room's occupant, the Jotaro figure that was furiously pounding on the glass wall suddenly stopped what it was doing, then looked up slightly at Hoshino Satoru, who had blocked out the light. Judging from his facial expression, he was probably very angry.

Are you angry with me...?

Looking at the angry Jotaro figure, Hoshino Satoru almost laughed for a moment, but just as he was about to laugh, he seemed to realize something and quickly suppressed it, then pulled up his alien phone to learn about Earth's Japanese sign language.

Because of Hoshino Gokawa's exceptional abilities, he didn't need to spend much time learning.

As for why he learned sign language...

Of course, it was to communicate with the Jotaro figure in front of him. Although he was still not entirely sure if it was an intelligent being, Hoshino Gokawa thought it wouldn't hurt to try communicating with it.

When the Jotaro figure saw that the other party had started to try to communicate with him using sign language, he gradually calmed down from his anger and then communicated with the same gestures as Hoshino Gogawa. From this, it can be seen that he has perfectly possessed Jotaro's academic genius abilities.

"Are you Jotaro...?"

Hoshino Gokawa used gestures to say these words.

"Who am I...? Who are you?! Are you an accomplice of DIO?!"

Although his hands were very small, it did not prevent Hoshino Gogawa from understanding his meaning.

"No, I'm not DIO's classmate. I'm just an ordinary middle school student."

Upon seeing the meaning expressed by the other party, Hoshino Gokawa couldn't help but wonder if the Jotaro figure's memories were from when he went to fight DIO.

If that's the case, then that's interesting! Why would his memories be from when he was fighting DIO, rather than from after he defeated DIO at the end?

Another question popped into Hoshino Gokawa's mind. Although he wanted to think about it for a while longer, he decided that it wouldn't be good to leave the Jotaro figure unattended. So he immediately put his thoughts back on the present and continued to communicate with the other person.

"Do you think I'd believe that! This is obviously your double!"

The Jotaro figure, unaware of why it had become like this, now believes it to be the original JoJo from the JoJo series.

"Since you don't believe me, then I'll show you the evidence."

Knowing that his previous actions would not earn the other party's trust, Hoshino Gokawa immediately took down all six volumes of the JOJO manga from the bookshelf, then returned to the Mini World, created a small gap in the glass, and threw the large pile of manga he had just been carrying into it.

When the Jotaro figure saw the comic books being thrown in, it thought they would be crushed, so it instinctively summoned Star Platinum to blast a hole in them, only to find that the books that were thrown in had inexplicably shrunk.

"See... these comic books will prove I wasn't lying."

After closing the small opening he had just made, Hoshino Gokawa, after making a few hand gestures, stopped disturbing the Jotaro figure and went straight to his computer to pass the time.

After a while, he finally finished reading the comic book before putting down what he was doing and coming back to him.

"Am I... just a cartoon character?"

He was still looking at the regular Jotaro figures when he saw Hoshino Gogawa return. He put down the manga book that had shrunk many times over and started gesturing to him in sign language.

"Strictly speaking, it should be called a figurine, and I bought it in the last few days."

As he spoke, Hoshino Gokawa picked up the figure box that he hadn't thrown away from the table next to him and showed it off to the Jotaro figure.

The Jotaro figures, upon seeing their invincible figures prominently displayed on the cover of the figure box, fell silent, even ceasing their hand gestures.

Whether he wants to admit it or not, the Jotaro figure cannot change the fact that it is a toy, or in other words, a fake, even if it has all the memories from before the manga and the fight with DIO.

However, this raised a question for him: how exactly did he develop consciousness, and where did those three little people come from?

"Well... your origin is actually here."

After making the hand gestures, Hoshino Gokawa took out the dollhouse he had kept in his personal space.

"this is……"

It's impossible not to remember the Jotaro figure in this room, after all, it was there that I encountered the incomprehensible monster.

"You gained consciousness after I put you in this room. As for why..."

This is because the room possesses a very special power that can bring inanimate objects to life and can also input memories that are almost identical to those of the original.

This time, however, Hoshino Gokawa no longer gestured with his hands, but directly stated the truth of the matter.

"Really……"

Now that he fully understands his origins, the Jotaro figure seems to have lost his purpose and doesn't know what to do, because he now knows that he is fake, whether it's his body or his memories, he is an imposter.

If it were the real Jotaro, he might not have fallen so easily, but unfortunately he wasn't, and that's why the Jotaro figure suddenly became worn out.

When Hoshino Gokawa saw the other person in this state, he didn't know how to comfort him. Although the other person was not a real person, after rounds of sign language communication, he felt that this Jotaro could be considered a sentient being because he had his own independent thinking logic.

They can think for themselves and judge the truth based on reality, instead of just saying whatever a programmed puppet says.

so-------------------------------

"Although your body and your memories are not real, you don't necessarily have to confine yourself to the person Jotaro."

After thinking it over, Hoshino Gokawa decided to try to help him get out of his autism with some inspirational quotes.

"..."

Since the figure couldn't speak, Hoshino Gogawa could only see its blank and somber expression, which he found rather strange.

"Look... since you're not Jotaro, you might as well not be Jotaro at all. Choose a new name for yourself and find something you want to do next."

For example, studying marine life or something like that…

"But the problem is... I'm just a figurine. How am I supposed to use this body to study marine life?"

The Jotaro figure has absolutely no enthusiasm for Hoshino Gokawa's terrible idea.

Chapter 191 Education

"If that's the problem, don't worry. I have something that can help you, and you can decide for yourself where you want to go in the future. I won't stop you in any way."

Hoshino Gokawa, who completely regarded the other party as an intelligent being, decided not to restrict the freedom of the Jotaro figure anymore. In other words, the figure could go wherever it wanted. In order to make the sign language more realistic, Hoshino Gokawa directly granted the Jotaro figure the permissions of the Mini World.

Upon seeing the Jotaro figure with an extra wrist on its hand, it tried taking two steps forward. Then it saw that the glass wall in front of it had indeed been opened with an oval-shaped gap that was twice the size of itself.

Da...da...

Perhaps because his body was a figurine, the sound Jotaro made when he walked out sounded a bit like wood hitting the floor.

"How are you going to help me?"

Although the Jotaro figure is not the real Jotaro, he does not want to change his own preferences, so he is actually willing to accept the other party's suggestion.

"It's very simple, just use this..."

If it were the old Hoshino Gokawa, he wouldn't be able to offer anything good, but now it's different. With the compensation from Krona, he can practically buy everything on the alien website.

And among these things, there must be something that can help with the Jotaro figure.

Just like...

A holographic image that can simulate all known life forms on Earth and even be a physical device; a protective suit that can reach the deepest part of the ocean without incident; and even if the Jotaro figure is willing, Hoshino Satoru could buy some alien seafood for him.

When he saw Hoshino Gogawa turn the screen on his phone into a projector and project it in front of the Jotaro figure, he was undoubtedly shocked. Although he did have Jotaro's memories, that did not mean he could immediately accept the existence of aliens.

You know, nothing other than Stand users or vampires appeared in the third part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, but then aliens suddenly appeared in the real world. How can Jotaro's figure not be surprised?

Therefore, his current expression can only be described as a series of exclamation marks.

"Extraterrestrials exist in this world?!"

"Of course, this isn't the world you remember from the comics, but a real place, so there are aliens here too."

"Ugh, ugh... that's enough."

If this Jotaro figure could talk, it would probably say something like this, but unfortunately it can't. And it's too lazy to use sign language for these meaningless words, so it's unlikely to say anything like that in the future, unless the Jotaro figure can talk someday.

What happened next was that Hoshino Gokawa ordered some things from an alien website that could be used to study and observe marine life, and also gave them some scientific research equipment that would allow Jotaro's figurines to be made into marine life.

But...

He has to read those instruction manuals for a long time.

"So what should I call you from now on...?"

"You should still call me Jotaro."

After ending their sign language conversation, the two went about their own business.

Then, in the blink of an eye, it was the next morning. After reminding Jotaro not to let his parents know, Hoshino Gogawa went to school.

But whether it's because of the arrival of aliens or some other reason, the frequency of accidents in this world seems to be much higher than before.

It's like Saiki Kusuo, who is currently riding a tram, suddenly seeing something again.

"I'll be right back..."

Influenced by his ability to make those around him disregard him, Saiki Kusuo vanished instantly and reappeared outside, next to the wheels of a carriage in the middle.

After finding out which wheel was causing the problem, he adjusted the time to two years ago so that the tram wouldn't derail because of it.

Hoshino Satoru, who witnessed the entire process, estimated that Saiki Kusuo resolved a major accident in less than half a minute.

"So, back to the topic we were just discussing... You just said that you were using sign language to communicate with the figures you revived last night, right?" Intrigued by this, Saiki Kusuo continued the conversation.

"Hmm... Although it can't speak, judging from the logic of thought it exhibits, it should be considered an intelligent being."

This is Hoshino Gokawa's evaluation of him; after all, a puppet without intelligence cannot doubt itself.

"Really……"

Upon hearing this, Kusuo Saiki recalled the steamed bun bracelet he had brought home. Compared to the steamed bun bracelet the other person mentioned, it didn't seem to qualify as an intelligent being.

Because all his actions and behaviors were so simple and straightforward, almost like a child's, and that was all.

It was precisely for this reason that Kusuo Saiki was curious about why his steamed bun bracelet was so similar to the number of Hoshino Satoru's figurines.

Hoshino Gokawa's explanation for this was: "It's probably because my figure has human memories and includes all sorts of educational knowledge. Without this knowledge, he would probably be as silly as you, the steamed bun man."

And there was a cruel experiment abroad where newborn babies were left in a room and left unattended, only provided with food, water, and toileting, without any education, to see what would happen.

The result was that they completely transformed into wild beasts who only knew how to eat, drink, sleep, and defecate anywhere. So, do you understand what I mean?

Having read such a report in my past life, Hoshino Gokawa has to say that some scientists are truly anti-human, capable of doing such outrageous things for the sake of a single proof.

While it's true that scientific viewpoints should be based on facts, you still have to incorporate your own personal standards into them.

"..."

Having roughly understood the meaning behind Hoshino Gokawa's words, Saiki Kusuo immediately began to ponder how he should face that steamed bun bracelet in the future.

Should we treat it like a pet and ignore it, or should we treat it as a completely new intelligent life form and teach it to learn things?

In a sense, if Kusuo Saiki cannot face this problem squarely, it may affect his future attitude towards non-humans.

After careful consideration, Kusuo Saiki finally decided to try and see if he could teach the bun bracelet technique.

If Hoshino Gosaku hadn't mentioned that case, he probably wouldn't have thought so much about it, but it was because the other party mentioned Saiki Kusuo that he realized how important education is.

Chapter 192 Alien Commercial Street

"Thank you! Thank you so much for agreeing to let us build a commercial street here!"

An alien dressed in a suit, with a head shaped like a pineapple but also having eyes, was bowing and scraping before Hoshino Gokawa with the utmost humility, just like a Japanese office worker.

"It's okay, as long as you don't cause trouble, I won't have any objections."

Hoshino Gokawa simply nodded and smiled at his humility, letting it pass by without a word. After all, it wasn't that he needed something from the other person, but rather that the other person needed something from him.

Even that's not the point. The point is that the person in charge of this alien commercial street will give him a portion of the money as protection money or something similar.

In a sense, this is quite ridiculous. They don't own the land, but they have to get their consent to build on it. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to do it even if they had permission from their own government.

Because power is the truth of the world. Without power, no matter how eloquent you are, it's all in vain. Do you think the protagonists who defeat the villains in anime rely on their words?

No! It's still power! They've just given the power they use a reason!

Even from a certain perspective, whether it's the protagonist or the villain in anime, they all actually contain a touch of selfishness in their hearts.

You want the world to be destroyed, and I don't want the world to be destroyed, so we started fighting. And what supports their actions is undoubtedly power!

Okay, back to the main topic. Shortly after reaching an agreement with this alien, Hoshino Gokawa sensed that a large number of strange things were being moved in or built up a thousand meters underground in his city.

As for whether their actions might cause the ground to collapse...

Do you think alien technology is a joke? If they can't even support the weight of a city, what right do they have to be called an interstellar civilization?

"Tsk, I never thought about making money, but how come I have more and more money now?"

Looking at the extra numbers on the alien phone, Hoshino Gokawa was almost speechless. Although it was less than one millionth of the compensation given by the Kronians, this amount of money would still rank him among the top 100 richest people if converted into Earth currency.
